One deputy dead, one in surgery after shootout with murder suspect Christopher Dorner

San Bernardino County Sheriff John McMahon dropes his head as he walks out of the ER at Loma Linda University Medical Center to report to the media that one police officer was killed and one injured by Christopher Dorner in the Big Bear area in Loma Linda February 12, 2013.

One of the two deputies shot during a gun battle with Christopher Dorner today has died, according to an official with the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department.

The other officer is in surgery, but should be fine, Sheriff John McMahon said during an afternoon press conference.

The deputies were injured about 12:30 p.m. after they pursued reports of a stolen vehicle near a Club View Drive cabin.

When the deputies located the stolen vehicle the suspect, who matched the description of murder suspect Dorner, fled and barricaded himself in a nearby cabin.

There was an exchange of gunfire, which led to the injuries. The deputies were airlifted off the mountain to local hospitals.

No California Fish and Game wardens have been wounded or killed, according to Fish and Game spokesman Andrew Hughan.

The Riverside County District Attorney's office also charged Dorner with three counts of attempted murder for allegedly wounding Crain's partner and also firing upon two LAPD officers who had been assigned to a special protective detail in Corona.

The Corona shooting also took place last Thursday.

In addition to those charges, Dorner is accused shooting and killing Monica Quan and her fiance Keith Lawrence on Feb. 3 in Irvine.
